Difficulties with configuring Transmission on OpenWRT

Post by K14M »

Good afternoon. I want to install Transmission on my router with OpenWRT, but I have difficulties with it. I wrote to the OpenWRT forum but nobody knows how to configure Transmission. Where can I go with this problem?

Install Transmission via SSH:
opkg update
opkg install transmission-daemon transmission-web
Edit the config file /etc/config/transmission to set options like download directory and RPC settings.
Start and enable the service
/etc/init.d/transmission start
/etc/init.d/transmission enable
Access the web UI by visiting http://<router_ip>:9091 in your browser.
Ensure firewall settings allow necessary ports (e.g., 9091 for the web UI).
For troubleshooting, check logs with
logread | grep transmission
